Car Alarms: Montero Sport factory alarm, valet mode, montero sport


Question
I have a 1999 Montero Sport. We bought it used 2 years ago. It only had a reproduced key, not an original. There was no remote for the alarm. After some repair work the parking lights are flashing and the alarm beeps. The car will not start. The Mitsubishi security system box has this number on it MD012141. Can you tell me how to reset it or how to buy instructions at WIRINGCHARTS to disarm it? Thanks.

Answer
Ok, should be fairly easy. To try to disarm it,
look under the dash area for a button or,
a toggle switch. When you locate it, turn on the
ignition key, press and hold in the button (little
spring loaded micro button, red or black possibly)
until the alarm chirps 1 time. This should over ride
the system, and only the keyless entry part,
if installed, would still be operating.
The LED (light emiting diode) light in the dash
should also go on solid.=VALET/OVERIDE

This stops the alarm except for the keyless
entry if installed. Once in Valet mode,
it will allow the car to start and operate
like there was no alarm at all.

That should solve the troubles for now.
Repeat the steps to toggle back to valet when needed.

Let me know what you discover.
